Summer is drawing to an end.
*Note - this picture is purely random and has no relation whatsoever to the text following it. Also, no photo editing was done.Hmm. School is drawing near (in about a month's time), and the bidding frenzy this week has only served to remind us of that. I'm half relieved, half dreading it - on one hand, work has been pretty fun and interesting, on the other, I'm happy that I won't have to wake up before 8am 5 days a week and do stuff which is sometimes boring/unchallenging/freaking annoying. (The last one refers to cold calling, which I am now sure I don't really want to do in the future). Also, even though I think it has been a good experience - I actually saw the inner workings of a company and how things function - I don't really think I will be going into this line in the future. Though, I can't be sure, because it has been really interesting for some parts. I think ideally, it would be great to be able to try a whole lot of different jobs la. I can see how boredom sets in when you're stuck in a rut.
Basically I think this working thing (and other people's working issues/experiences/stories too) have got me thinking. Adult life really isn't as shiny and fun as it seems to be to young kids in their pathetically sheltered school life, huh? I think I'm slowly starting to get it.
But well, no need to get all jaded yet. That can wait til next summer, after my NEW YORK TRIP (YAY I CANNOT WAIT). Haha. I think I will try and intern again - bumming around all summer last year was fun, but er, kind of a waste of time really. But next year, I am definitely NOT interning the WHOLE summer -_- there really isn't much left of my school life and I am going to try and enjoy the little that's left.
And urghh... Fat, and now lumpy. Yes yes, I know; I really ought to exercise :/
...I see I've learnt how to let criticism not cut so deep...
First time ever since I started working that I actually went home for dinner after work. Doesn't feel too bad after all. And I think I might actually sleep early tonight. Haha. But first, I shall go watch some... (I don't believe I'm saying this)... Bleach. Hrm.
